Onvifscan - ONVIF Security Scanner
You are helping the user scan ONVIF devices for security issues including authentication bypasses and weak credentials using the onvifscan tool.
Tool Overview
Onvifscan is an ONVIF device security scanner that can:
- Test for unauthenticated access to ONVIF endpoints
- Perform credential brute-forcing attacks
Instructions
When the user asks to scan ONVIF devices, test IP cameras, or assess IoT device security:
- Determine scan type:
auth: Authentication and access control testing (recommended to start)brute: Credential brute-forcing on password-protected endpoints
- Get target information:
- Ask for the device URL/IP
- Determine which scan type to run
- Check if they have custom wordlists
- Execute the scan:
- Use the onvifscan command from the iothackbot bin directory
- Format:
onvifscan [options]
Subcommands
Auth Scan
Tests ONVIF endpoints for authentication requirements:
onvifscan auth http://192.168.1.100Options:
-v, --verbose: Show full XML responses-a, --all: Test ALL endpoints including potentially destructive ones--format text|json|quiet: Output format
Brute Force
Attempts credential brute-forcing on protected endpoints:
onvifscan brute http://192.168.1.100Options:
--usernames: Custom usernames wordlist (default: built-in onvif-usernames.txt)--passwords: Custom passwords wordlist (default: built-in onvif-passwords.txt)--format text|json|quiet: Output format
Examples
Quick auth check on a device:
onvifscan auth 192.168.1.100Auth check with verbose output:
onvifscan auth http://192.168.1.100:8080 -vBrute force with custom wordlists:
onvifscan brute 192.168.1.100 --usernames custom-users.txt --passwords custom-pass.txtImportant Notes
- URLs can omit
http://- it will be added automatically - Auth scan is non-destructive and safe to run
- Use
-aflag with caution - may test destructive endpoints - Brute force is rate-limited to prevent device overload (max 20 attempts by default)
- Built-in wordlists located in
wordlists/directory
